What oil is best? and what ratio?

[lehman live edge slab]

Any saw builders run and test this oil? Hopefully wasn’t already brought up in this thread I just skimmed over it. I have ran this and also the semi synthetic version and never have had any issues in fact I run the orange bottle stihl oil or this oil only just wanted some opinions from people if they’ve tested in a ported saw. Semi-synthetic version is 19$ a gallon locally.

Thanks guess didn’t even know how to do that until now. Looks like it’s ok oil especially for 20$ a gallon.

Never noticed the search on my phone screen until you pointed it out.

Told dad to not run any more stihl Ultra hp in his br 600 after seeing the pole saw engine. I’ve seen the negative comments on the 4 mix but I like my ht 101 and dads br 600 has been great.

I have been using it for a bit. As far as review not really. But it doesn't smoke even at 32:1 , the smell is not intolerable very little smell at all, doesn't sting my eyes and nostrals like some. And nothing had blown up yet! Sorry no real details of film strength or how much oil is in the bottom end.

Thanks @CoreyB ... Thanks to this thread, I've sampled the Red Armor and VP. Figured this is next.

Did we come to a conclusion on which oil is best, and what the best ratio is? Are we still using oil? Straight gas?

 

[RI Chevy]

The oil that oils good is the best.

Who cares, its just gas , oil, and saws. Any oil works great!

Which color is the best? I heard red oil is good for an extra 500 rpms. And makes sawz run more powrfully!

I heard that too Jeff. I just mixed some blue stuff yesterday. We'll see how that goes. I have my doubts, though.

Maxima K2 has been doin great for me and I cant remember what color it is!!! Hadnt taken one apart in awhile to observe lubricating properties as that practice doesnt have much merit around here

No appreciation of put forth effort around here for said efforts. Quit wasting my time awhile ago
